joecraigfanclub Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Somebody I know went to the Hotel du Rome for afternoon tea. Apparently its a cake buffet with repeat visits welcome. Might be one for anyone with a girlfriend looking to impress, especially if you are a feeder :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captain Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Berlin is a wonderful place. With a bit of planning and luck with fixtures you can do 3 games in 3 cities over a weekend, if you are happy to get on the train for a wee while.

joecraigfanclub Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Recommendation for a brauhaus. Worth visiting just to meet the owner LeibhaftigWe had a fantastic evening at this brewery restaurant, owned by Marcus and Ilona Wanke. We had planned to have a night on the town, but the constant stream of their Wanke Bräu beer and Bavarian-style tapas was so amazing we couldn’t leave. Marcus was a wonderful host and, with a surge of microbeer restaurants opening up around Prenzlauerberg, this is a cut above the rest.leibhaftig.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exglasgowasc Posted January 12, 2016 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Further to your recommendations above Kevin, let me know if you come across any more good bars or restaurants. I'm going over again in March for 3 nights before going back in May. At £28 return from Glasgow i just couldn't refuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to go over for union berlin games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus was a wonderful host and, with a surge of microbeer restaurants opening up around Prenzlauerberg, this is a cut above the rest. leibhaftig.com Went to this place the other night and its highly recommended. Very friendly owner and staff. we sat at the bar and the beer and bavarian tapas, ok different wee plates of sausage or cheese, were both superb. Its not the biggest but its very convivial. Owner is a Bayern Munich fan funnily enough. The beer is brewed 60km away and was the best I had when in Berlin. He is a good guy, not a wanke! Also went to hop and barley in Friedrichshain which is a cracking boozer/brauhaus. Felt very much like a Scottish old school pub. Good beer, again in a convivial environment. Only downside was people smoking in the corridor which eventually permeated the whole pub. This was the second bar they were doing it in and I don't understand how they get away with it but as someone said "Its Berlin, no one gives a ". Also went to Rockz bar in that area which is very good as well. That was the first time I had walked around Friedrichshain and was pretty surprised at the number of bars and eating places, most of which have a happy hour with very cheap cocktails.

Union Berlin and Babelsburg 08 (in Pottsdam) are away better than seeing Hertha. I had a Hertha season ticket for the year I lived there and regretted it. Union was a ton more fun. After 4 games in the Olympic Stadium the novelty had worn off and 45,000 fans in a 75,000 capacity stadium unfortunately = no atmosphere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're still not selling tickets for it, although they are selling them for their games against Bayern and Dortmund that are up after. Don't imagine I'll have a problem right enough, but I'm the kind of anal who likes to get everything organised. Would much prefer to see Union but they're away to Paderborn. Would have loved to have gone the week before and gone to St Pauli v Union, that would've been excellent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
